Africa is viewed worldwide as a "sleeping gas giant”. The continent’s total gas reserves are almost as large as those of the US. But will local people actually benefit from the export of gas, as hoped?
Europe is looking for new gas producers. This is because Russia’s war against Ukraine has highlighted Europe's and especially Germany's dependence on Russian gas. One possible solution is to increase gas imports from Africa, which already account for around a fifth of the gas used in Europe.
Mozambique in southern Africa is expected to become the third largest African exporter of liquefied natural gas. Senegal in West Africa is also seen as a major future gas supplier.
What does this development mean for the people of Mozambique and Senegal? Will they actually benefit from gas exports as hoped? Can the utilization of gas reserves create new jobs and help to reduce migration from Senegal to Europe?
So far, the gas sector in Mozambique has led to conflict rather than prosperity. Is a turnaround in sight? Or is African gas coming too late to be relevant for European climate neutrality targets?
